I don&#39;t like books about serial killers, so I won&#39;t be reading this one! Especially not since the author takes such liberties with the original, which is my favorite classic of all time!<br /><br />I really enjoyed reading your review, though! I loved your insights on this novel! Your mention of the things you most enjoyed about this book also made reading your review very interesting!<br /><br />Hope you&#39;re all having a WONDERFUL Thanksgiving!!
